This is gardening week over
the country, although a number
of local industrious housewives
have beat trie? designators to it,
by several., jumps, and have
oodles of green stuff peeping
from the seed beds. It is being
observed by local women’s clubs
and the school. The dry goods
stores also have splendid win-
dows carrying out the iuea. A
good garden cuts the cost of
living, and (lowers add much to
the beauty and attractiveness of
the home. More power to gar
dening week.
The Times is in receipt of a
copy of The Trinitorian, official
-tudent publication of Trinity
University, Waxahachie, This
copy carries the name of Russell
Leant of Deport as assistant
editor of the special staff. Now
it is our understanding that
‘‘Doc" is to study medicine when
he has completed his literary
education, but if be snoops
around a newspaper plant and
g'-ts printers ink on bis hands,
a brilliant career in the world of
medicine and surgery will go
glimmering and the field of
journalism will he enriched bv
another star.
Contrary to toe expectations
of the pessimistically inclined,
Easter Sunday was a beautiful
day. Old Sol was on the job
trying to warm mother earth,
and swelling buds and unfolding
leaves put new hope and joy into
the hearts of mankind. Attend
ance at all the churches and Sun-
day Schools was Urge, and many
invaded the woods m search of
wild flowers and to note the,. . .__ _

wonderful works of nature. It 1
made one want to get out of
Deport merchants have not
been called upon to contribute
one penny to the support of
athletics in the local high school
this year, but now that we have an
opportunity to win state honors
for the school find the city, there
should be a liberal response for
funds to defray expenses of the
two local hoys and the coach to
Austin next week. The railroad
fare will amount to about $60,
but the ,'nterscholastic Luagu»-
pays 60 per cent of this; the cost
for meals will oe about $1.50 a
day per man, leaving about $40
to be raised for meals and 40
per cent of the railroad fare.
Show your loyalty to the home
town anti school when called
upon to contribute to this fund,
by giving willingly ami liberally.

The response to The Times’
short-term subscript ion offe. has
been greater than we anticipated.
'Iherewere 42 names listed us
new subscribers in last week’s
papei, and the list published
today con'ains 76 names, maxing
• total of 11M. .W'e hope when
their subscriptions expire Dee.
1 we will all have plenty of
money, that seven months’ read-
ing of The Times will have thor-
oughly convinced them they
should not be without their local
community paper, and that every
one of them will renew prompt-
ly. We thank evertope who in
any way has helped to make the
campaign a success.
Kind, and from what we can
learn, the proposal is for the
laying of a water main from tile
large overhead tank at the gin,
up Main street, and the install-
ation of plugs it intervals to be
used in case of ffre. The com-
pany has a large pump capable
of lifting a great deal of water or
connecting it direct and putting
on considerable pressure. If
standard ecioipmcnt is used we
would save enough on ffre in
surance within a year to pay for
such service several limes. We
hope to have something definite
to say shortly about the proposi-
tion.
